Good morning. My name is Joelle, and I will be your conference operator today. At this time, I would like to welcome everyone to the Corus Entertainment Q2 2026 Analyst and Investor Conference Call. All lines have been placed on mute to prevent any background noise. After the speaker's remarks, there will be a question and answer session. If you would like to ask a question during this time, simply press star then the number one on your telephone keypad. If you would like to withdraw your question, please press star two. Thank you. As a reminder, this call is being recorded. I will now turn the call over to Mr. John Gossling, CEO of Corus Entertainment. Mr. Gossling, you may begin your conference. Thanks very much, Operator, and good morning, everyone. I'm John Gossling, Chief Executive Officer, and welcome to Corus Entertainment's fiscal 2026 second quarter earnings call. I'd like to remind everyone that we have slides to accompany today's call, and you can find them on our website at www.corusent.com under the Investor Relations, Events and Presentation section. I'll start off by drawing your attention to our standard cautionary statement, which can be found on slide 2. We note that forward-looking statements may be made during this call, and actual results could differ materially from forecast projections or conclusions in these statements. I'd also like to remind those on our call today, in addition to disclosing results in accordance with IFRS, Corus also provides supplementary non-IFRS or non-GAAP measures as a method of evaluating the company's performance and to provide a better understanding of how management views the company's performance. Today, we will be referring to certain non-GAAP measures in our remarks. Additional information on these non-GAAP measures, the company's reported results, and factors and assumptions related to forward-looking information can be found in Corus' second quarter 2026 report to shareholders and the 2025 annual report, which can be found on SEDAR+ or, again, in the Investor Relations-Financial Report section of our website. Joining me on today's call are Jennifer Lee, who is our Chief Administrative and Legal Officer, as well as senior finance team members Doug Spence and Ann Duggan, all of whom are outlined on slide 3. Starting on slide 4, I'll give you an update on our proposed recapitalization transaction. As you likely already know, I'm pleased to share that we have now received the court order allowing us to proceed with this transaction. This marks an important milestone towards strengthening Corus' financial foundation and positioning the company for the future. We are now moving through the remaining steps, including working to obtain regulatory and stock exchange approvals. As we said before, this transaction is designed to significantly improve our balance sheet, enhance liquidity, and give us greater flexibility to invest in the business, outcomes we believe are in the best interest of the company and our stakeholders. In terms of timing, we are not yet in a position to provide an estimated closing date. The timeline will depend largely on the regulatory process, and we expect to have more clarity on that process as it progresses. In the meantime, our focus remains on execution, and we're making solid progress on key revenue, cost, and efficiency initiatives. All right. Turning now, let's have a look at our Global programming performance on slide 5. The Winter Olympics, as expected, resulted in a delayed start to our Global winter and spring schedule, along with audience and financial impacts consistent with prior Olympic years. These included shifts in the timing of programming and marketing costs, as well as temporary disruption to typical advertising investment and viewing patterns. Global has quickly regained momentum, emerging as the number one network in core prime time post-Olympics and delivering higher audience levels than the same weeks last year. Global currently has eight of the top 10 shows in Canada, including the top three overall, led by the blockbuster 50th season of Survivor, which is delivering 47% higher audiences so far compared to the prior season average. Global's performance underscores the strength of our content slate as we move into the remainder of the broadcast year. Turning now to specialty on slide 6. This spring, Corus is home to the top three entertainment specialty networks in Canada, W Network, Home Network, and Showcase, reflecting the continued strength and relevance of our portfolio. Across key genres, we continue to hold leading positions. W Network and Showcase remain the number one and number two drama brands. Home and Flavour are the top two lifestyle brands. History continues as the number one factual network, and YTV remains the leading kids commercial network. We are also encouraged by the momentum at Slice, which has delivered significant gains and is now a top 20 network. Overall, Corus currently holds 15 of the top 20 entertainment specialty shows, underscoring the depth and consistency of our content offering. We're particularly excited about both our current slate and upcoming programming across the portfolio, which we believe supports our performance in the months ahead. Taking a look at digital. As discussed earlier, digital tuning this winter was impacted by temporary factors related to the Olympics. Strong audience engagement around returning franchises and new content launches has driven improved tuning past Olympics, with titles like Survivor continuing to be important contributors across platforms. As more of our spring programming rolls out, we're encouraged by the improved performance we're seeing and remain focused on driving engagement and growth across our digital ecosystem. With that, I'll turn it over to Doug Spence now to review the financial highlights for Q2. Thank you, John. I'll start on slide 7. In our second quarter, lower TV advertising revenue, combined with the lower subscription revenue, contributed to consolidated revenue of CAD 230 million, a 15% decrease from the prior year. Our results were impacted by lower demand for linear TV in the broader advertising market, persistent macroeconomic factors and, as John noted, by the temporary disruptions to February's Programming schedules and advertising investments due to the Olympics. On the subscriber side, lower revenue was driven by the reduced number of specialty channels in our portfolio compared to the prior year, plus ongoing declines in the traditional linear subscription business. Consolidated Segment Profit of CAD 30 million for the quarter, a significant 72% increase compared to the prior year. The lower Q2 revenue was more than offset by a number of temporary and permanent factors, resulting in a 21% decrease in Direct Cost of Sales, General and Administrative Expenses. Direct Cost of Sales decreased 24%, driven by lower amortization of program rights from the delayed timing of our winter and spring program premieres, which was a temporary situation, and the discontinuation of certain program rights related to our specialty television portfolio changes, which are permanent savings. Put another way, timing accounted for approximately one-third of the CAD 28 million decrease in amortization of program rights in the quarter. Other Cost of Sales also declined significantly due to costs in the prior year period related to a certain digital sales initiative that has since ended. General and Administrative expenses were notably lower, down 17%, including a 9% decrease in employee costs and a 31% decrease in other G&A. While the prior year quarter included some one-time expenses related to the launch of two specialty channels, reduced costs in the current year reflected the benefits of our cost containment program and the receipt of funding to offset news production costs. Consolidated Segment Profit margin was 13% for the quarter, up from 6% last year. Net Debt to Segment Profit was 6.7x, compared to 6.01x at the end of last year, and was down from 7.39x at the end of Q1, benefiting from higher Segment Profit and lower lease liabilities in Q2. At the end of our second quarter, we were in compliance with all loan covenants and had approximately CAD 36 million of cash and cash equivalents and CAD 35 million available to be drawn under the Revolving Credit Facility. As a reminder, given the Recapitalization Transaction process at the end of the second quarter, we obtained a Waiver and Standstill with the lenders under the Credit Facility, which provides waivers of certain financial covenants, including the Net Debt to Cash Flow ratio until May 30th, 2026. Free cash flow of positive CAD 1.3 million in Q2 was lower than the prior year, driven by higher working capital usage and increased cash taxes, partially offset by higher Segment Profit and lower spend on program rights and film investments. I'll now move on to slide eight. TV Segment revenue was CAD 212 million for the second quarter, down 16% from the prior year. This was mainly driven by lower TV advertising revenue, which declined 21% to CAD 102 million, and subscriber revenue, which declined 12% to CAD 99 million. Normalizing for the sunset of two specialty networks in December 2024 and five additional channels in September 2025, subscriber revenue declined 7% compared to last year. Distribution, production, and other revenue was CAD 11 million, up 8%, mainly as a result of higher international distribution sales in the quarter. TV Segment expenses of CAD 179 million were down 22% from the prior year, driven by a 24% decrease in Direct Cost of Sales, 9% lower employee costs, and a 34% decline in other General and Administrative expenses. Direct Cost of Sales benefited from a decline in amortization of program rights of CAD 28 million due to factors outlined earlier, and decreased other costs of sales of CAD 7 million associated with certain digital sales initiatives. Segment Profit of CAD 33 million, a 48% increase over prior year, reflects a significant decrease in expenses from ongoing cost reduction initiatives, as well as lower programming costs and other savings as described earlier, which more than offset the lower revenue. TV Segment profit margin was 16%, an increase from 9% in the prior-year quarter. Over to slide nine. Radio segment revenue of CAD 18 million for the quarter decreased 4% from the prior year due to lower advertising demand. In Q2, increases in the home products and automotive categories were offset by declines in general services, retail, restaurants, professional services, and government, which benefited from elections in the prior year. Radio segment profit increased to CAD 2 million, up 33% in the quarter, reflecting ongoing cost reduction initiatives, which more than offset the lower advertising demand. Radio segment profit margin improved to 11%, compared to 8% in the prior year quarter. I'll now turn it over to Jen. Doug. Excuse me. I will provide a brief update on the regulatory side. Essentially, we continue to be in a wait mode on the key developments I flagged last quarter. We're still looking to the CRTC to finalize key parts of the new regulatory framework for all broadcasting. That's digital, linear, domestic, and foreign. In addition, we are still waiting for a final judicial decision from the Court of Appeal that will allow us to receive our full amount of the Independent Local News Fund, or ILNF. As we've said many times before, we are undeniably a highly regulated industry, and we are not calling for all rules to be repealed. Rather, we are looking for smarter rules that promote fair competition. Like many others, we are looking forward to refreshed rules governing broadcasting distribution and spending on Canadian programs, and we continue to advocate for urgency on all of that work. In terms of our own proposed recapitalization transaction, as John already mentioned, we were very pleased to receive court approval in March, and we're now very focused on moving through regulatory approval processes as quickly as possible. We don't have any concrete timing on when that process will conclude, but we are working efficiently to advance to closing as soon as we can. This will allow us to realize the many and much needed benefits John noted earlier, reduction of debt and cash interest savings for the company. I'll turn it over now to John for his closing comments. Thanks, Jen. As we look ahead, our focus is clear. We are prioritizing strategic scheduling for the upcoming broadcast year to continue building on the audience success we're seeing across the portfolio. At the same time, we remain focused on creating new revenue opportunities through product innovation and the continued growth of our digital platforms. We are also maintaining a disciplined approach to costs with ongoing efforts to right-size our cost structure and align it with the realities of today's market. Finally, as Jen said, we are working expeditiously to secure the remaining approvals and advance the final steps required to close the proposed recapitalization transaction. We're very excited about the future, one built on a more sustainable capital structure, supported by leading brands and content, and driven by the strength, commitment, and expertise of our talented team. Thank you very much for your continued interest and support. With that, we'll hand it back to the operator. Thank you. Ladies and gentlemen, we will now begin the question and answer session. Should you have a question, please press star followed by the one on your touch-tone phone. You will hear a prompt that your hand has been raised. Should you wish to decline from the polling process, please press star followed by the two. If you are using a speakerphone, please lift the handset before pressing any keys. One moment, please, for your first question. Your first question comes from Tim Casey with BMO. Your line is now open. Thanks. Good morning. I know you indicated in terms of the recap process, you don't have any indications of timing, but could you maybe provide a little detail as to what the steps that the process has to go through to get to the finish line? Just sort of help us, I guess, look for milestones as you get to the finish of the recapitalization. Thanks. Sure, Tim. Thanks much. I'll hand it over to Jen, but just say maybe high level. We're dealing with the transfer of broadcast licenses here. That's the typical CRTC process. You'd be used to that in many, many past transactions. The first thing that you'll probably see is when the applications are gazetted, but I'll let Jen kind of maybe go into some detail. I don't think it's really particularly complicated. It just takes time, and there's a fair amount of information that needs to be considered and provided. Yeah, Tim, I think, John, it's a great question, but John's pretty much covered what we know. It is a typical view of the CRTC that there'll be a transfer of our broadcast licenses. There's nothing that we think that would lead to this transaction not being approved, but we don't have a lot of clarity right now on the exact process or the time the CRTC will take. Like John said, at some point, that process will be made public. It'll be what John said, gazetted. It'll be made public, sort of what we're looking for. At that point, we expect that everyone, including us, will know a bit better what the next steps to CRTC are. Thanks for that. Just to confirm, is that the only, I guess, hurdle left is the CRTC, or is there other regulatory issues, or have you got all the court approvals in terms of the business side of the recap, or is there anything else that we have to wait for? We do. We are a public company, so we'll have sort of typical things that we go through with the TSX, with listing and things like that. In terms of where you're going, Tim, absolutely, we have the Court approval. We've had support agreements with the supporting bondholders for some time and our lender support. Really the biggest step that remains is regulatory approval, which will allow us to close. Thank you. Thanks, Tim. Ladies and gentlemen, as a reminder, should you have a question, please press star one. There are no further questions at this time. I will now turn the call over to Mr. John Gossling, CEO, for closing remarks. Great. Thanks very much, operator. Thank you again, everyone, for your interest and your time this morning. We will certainly be updating on our recap as things develop as per Tim's question. With that, we will leave it there and wish everyone a great day and hopefully a sunny weekend. Bye now. Ladies and gentlemen, this concludes your conference call for today. We thank you for participating and ask that you please disconnect your lines.
